The Gifts of the Body - A Talk about Somatic Coaching with Nathan Blair
In this episode, we’re delighted to welcome Nathan Blair, Founder of The Somatic School—the world’s first ICF Level 2-accredited training in Body-Oriented Coaching. Nathan left the corporate world to immerse himself in Somatic Psychology, Interpersonal Neurobiology and Body Psychotherapy—ultimately creating the training he had always wanted-
In our conversation, Nathan shares the roots of somatic coaching, emphasising the power of combining attention to felt sense with process-oriented coaching, and why “grace” or “revelation” are fitting terms for the kind of deep, life‑shifting insights that emerge from working directly with the body in coaching.
Key highlights from the conversation:
Why standard coaching frameworks miss half the picture—and how Body‑Oriented Coaching fills it
The distinction between adjustment, discharge, and process models in somatic work
The remarkable, lasting clarity that comes from embodied insight—“insights that over‑deliver”
The power of hot tubs
…and a lot! of interesting names and history!
If you’re a therapist, counsellor or coach curious about the intersection of science, spirituality and personal development, this episode offers both theoretical and practical inspiration—plus an invitation to explore somatic coaching for yourself – for free.
